Description

Cotshill Hospital is a former workhouse, now serving as a hospital, built around 1835 by George Wilkinson of Whitney. The main building features coursed rubblestone with stone dressings, showcasing finer courses and a heavily rock-faced plinth at the entrance block. It has gabled slate roofs and brick stacks throughout. The design includes a central lantern with six radiating wings, and the administrative block is positioned at right angles to the end of the western arm. The main building stands three storeys tall, with windows that have cambered heads and casements. The administrative block is more architecturally elaborate, consisting of two storeys and nine bays arranged in a rhythm of threes. It features a first-floor platband and a projecting eaves cornice. The outer three bays at each end have square-headed 12-pane sash windows, while the first-floor windows in the central section are round-headed. Below these, set in recesses with dentil courses, are two round-headed windows flanking a central door that has a semi-circular fanlight above it, with steps leading up to the door.

The building has been converted to residential use, and alterations include the demolition of two of the six wings.
